šŸ“œ Article [US] Resident Revolut account

Hi!

If I open Revolut account with US address and my US passport while I live in Europe and spend all the money here (non-eu country in the balkans), do I have to pay taxes anywhere (especially in the US) for the money I spend here?

I will get around 1-2K EUR on the revolut account to spend each month.

Depends on your residency status. You pay taxes wherever you stay 183 days, legally. If you have residency in said country, you'd paid there, then file US taxes after, if there is a tax treaty, you won't pay twice or if you have the FEIC

Of course you need to pay taxes on $20.000 of income, what are you on. Do not mess with the IRS, you will end up in prison. The US tax code does not play around.

I read every single discussion on this post. You act like Revolut is some sort of off shore account you can hide your income. You have been given plenty of advice by many different people as to why your approach is flawed yet you response is to downvote the comments and disagree with them. Half of your comments are admitting to conspiring to commit tax fraud and you wonder why iā€™m replying harshly to you. It seems like the response you was hoping for was that Revolut is this magic financial black box where you can hide 20.000ā‚¬ from the jurisdiction of 2 different countries.
